Takeaways of IGF2022
1. The sessions were well managed and well presented
2. Good opportunities for interaction and communication
3. Shane was indeed good from her part and managed everything well
4. A lot of scope and hope for collaboration (Aiesha, casa and Prinkaya srilank )
5. IGF always amazes me as every time there is something new, this year I attended very few
sessions and was mostly busy in coordinating and collaborating with people and networks in
the booth
6. IGF is not just about session there is greater deal to learn and to guide people towards the
CHANGE
7. IGF is all about people’s collaboration and community

2. Suggestion and Recommendation
1. More collaborative and networking session needed in the IGF
2. Generally what happens is people start to open up after 2 or 3 days and the IGF ends so ICE
breaking is a must
3. I would suggest an IG free course available in the community for the newer members just in
case they want to fresh up

3. Program Output:
1. Interviews of the
Participants about their
challenges and
problems of IG in the
Region
2. Collaborating with
resources and
facilitating people with
information
3. Creating a dialogue
of internet Governance
with in the Network
4. Focusing on effective
communication process
and creating better
opportunity
